Asher's POV
" Who is that?" Ardeyn asked me. I rolled my eyes.
" No one. She is just the new student of our class. You met her already. So, stop asking me about her again and again. I know about her as much as you know." I said to him though I knew that he will not trust me about this.
" Who do you think you are fooling, Ash?" He asked me. I rolled my eyes once again.
" Stop calling me that. I hate this nickname you have given me." I said to him and he chuckled.
" So, what else should I call you then?" He asked me.
" Nothing." I said to him.
" Ok, Nothing, then tell me what's going on?" He asked me and I looked at him irritatingly.
" I meant call me by my name." I said and he chuckled.
" Is there anything with the new girl?" He asked me wriggling his eyebrows.
" Oh!!! Hi, Juliet!!!" I said and he turned to see if Juliet was there or not. I rolled my eyes.
" This is what happened." I said to him.
" No way, Dude!!!" He said. " Are you in love with her?" He asked me and I rolled my eyes.
" Ardeyn, don't you think we are still young for that? And I have met her only thrice. How can I tell you already if it's love or not?!" I asked him.
" Time matters?!! I meet Juliet every single day but I am still confused about my feelings for her." He said.
" Cause you are still young to think like matured person. Once you reach the stage you will already know what is right and what is wrong for you." I said to him.
" Stop, lecturing me like a philosopher." He said and I rolled my eyes.
" Hey, Asher!!" We heard someone calling my name and turned to see Susan standing there on the corridor.
" Hi, Susie." Ardeyn said rolling his eyes. "What new news are you spreading the school now?" Ardeyn asked her.
" How do you know that I am here to do that?! I didn't even speak to you guys yet." She said to him back
" You do that most of the time." Ardeyn said and I chuckled. She rolled her eyes.
" I was here to tell you guys that the new girl must be dating Eros. They were very are cute together." She said and I rolled my eyes.
" How long are you dating Felix?" Ardeyn asked her. She looked at him weirdly.
" I am not dating him. We are just friends." She said.
" Exactly. They might be just friends as well." Ardeyn said to her.
" I mean they were very close to each other. That's why I was saying that." She said and I rolled my eyes.
" If you don't have anything else to do then crack your stupid jokes but please don't spread rumours." Ardeyn said to her and she gave him a hard glare but he rolled his eyes.
" I was here to talk to Asher. Can we talk for awhile if you don't mind Ardeyn?" She asked him.
" I do mind." Ardeyn said and I chuckled.
" What is it, Susan? Tell that in Ardeyn's presence if it's possible then you may leave. Trust me we won't mind." I said to her and she was irritated with that. She was surely.
" I was just here to invite you on my birthday party." She said and I rolled my eyes inwardly.
" And when is that?" I asked her.
" It's on next weekend." She said to me. I nodded.
" I would love to come but my mom will be home next weekend and I want to spend time with my mom. I hope you understand. She is not always at home. I don't want to miss the chance." I said to her and she was very disappointed. I knew it but I can't help it.
" Can you manage it just for an hour?" She asked me but I shook my head.
" I am so sorry, Susan. It may not be possible." I said to her and she sighed deeply but I had nothing to do in this topic.
" Ok. I think I will be going then. See you later. Bye." She said and I nodded. Then she left. Ardeyn chuckled.
" She got you like a magnet." He said and I rolled my eyes. " Mark my words she will be the villain of your love story." He said and I chuckled.
" I am still not sure about my love life so I am not worried about it at all." I said to him.
" What if you are sure about your love and then she comes to be the third wheeler in your love story?" Ardeyn asked me and I chuckled.
" Who knows me better than you?" I asked him. He rolled his eyes.
" No one. Literally no one." Ardeyn said and I chuckled.
" Then?" I asked him.
" You are a silent killer." He said and I chuckled but didn't say anything. At the same time we saw Aradhya coming toward the corridor with Eros following her.
I don't know why I didn't like him around her. I didn't like it at all. Why will she talk to him?!! I shook my head and took a deep breath. No, stop it. It's her life and her wishes. No one can influence her. Not even I myself.
" There Asher is." We heard Eros saying.
" Hey, Ardeyn and Asher!!!" Aradhya said to us. I nodded smilingly and I bet Ardeyn was looking at me weirdly but I ignored him.
" Hi, guys!!" I said to them.
" We were searching for you." Eros said.
" Me?! Why?!" I asked them.
" Actually, Arada needs your help a bit." He said.
" First of all, Eros, her name is Aradhya." Ardeyn said. " And secondly you are destroying her name."
" It's very hard to pronounce her name." He said and I nodded. He was right. Her name was very difficult to pronounce for any native speaker.
" That's ok. I am used to it." Aradhya said giving us a sweet smile. She looks like a doll, doesn't she?
" How may I help you?" I asked her. She smiled.
" Actually I have joined in the middle of the year so I am a bit confused. If you can guide me a bit." She said and I chuckled.
" Surely. Why not?" I said to her. She gave one of the sweet smiles of hers. I knew from that moment that this smile was going to kill me someday.
